Christmas Gifts

With 5 days before Christmas comes to town, I haven’t received much gifts compared last year but this year is so special not because I got few “expensive” gifts but they are somehow “cute” to my taste (or maybe I just have shallow happiness).

In our Kris Kringle (or gift giving with a theme) for the past 2 weeks, I first got this nut and bolts music man.

The one where it is standing is a washer, it’s legs are made of nails and some screws. The mouth piece is obviously the tip of a screw. The second one is a “magic ball” wherein it changes color from one to another when you throw it in the air.

When I opened my gift, it is the orange color that is facing the outside. When I throw this, the color was reversed (now with the green outside and the orange inside).

Everyone in the office got hooked with this new toy I have. We even had inserted physics terms in our discussion on how this specific ball changes color when thrown in the air. Remember trajectory path? Hehehe.

As Christmas draws close, it is not important what gifts have we received from others but what we have changed/improved to ourselves to be better persons for others. It is not Santa nor gifts that gives purpose to Christmas. Jesus, is the reason for this season!

Merry Christmas!

My friends call me Patrick although I can be referred through different names - JP, John, Patrick, Yummy (unfortunately), Papa P, and so on. I am a software developer who works mostly with Microsoft technologies but consider myself open to other technologies. I have started with open source technologies but it was the Microsoft stuff that jumpstarted my career so well, so my loyalty goes to ahm, ehrm, what works best! I talk about a lot of things under the sun but even if we disagree on some discussions, I would definitely respect your views on it. Loves traveling, adventures, reading, cooking, and photography when I don't sit in front my computer. Who ever said software developers are boring people?
